Possessed broken LCD ...

I recently bought an iphone 3g 16gb from a woman on craigslist for $125. The only problem was that the screen did not show anything after she dropped it. It still rang when called, made sounds, etc. I tested all of this. When I looked at the screen in the sun I saw distorted lines and boxes, so I figured it's just a quick LCD swap and everything will be ok. I was wrong.

My friend, who has his own 3g 16gb, offered to let me try his LCD just to make sure it worked. After I swapped LCD's and tried to turn it on, nothing. Then when my friend put his LCD back into his iPhone, his LCD didn't work!! ***?? Can anyone explain to me what could be the problem? And no, it's not that we hooked it up wrong. That's a noob mistake and I quadruple checked. Please help

Hello, I purchased the 3G last year and upgraded to the 3G S in July. I don't know what to do with my old phone. I have a friend who is now living in Liberia and travels back/forth to the US about 3-4 times per year. She told me that the phone has to be GSM-Broadband in order for her to use it. I called Apple, they told me that the 3G was GSM but didn't say anything about it being broadband.

iPhone Display turning itself on and off ...

Hey Guys,

I'm totally in love with my iPhone 3G but since I got it replaced by Apple (warranty), I discovered that in sleep mode the display randomly turns itself on and off again.

"On" in this case does not mean displaying any content nor the lockscreen, but mysterious black stripes that run vertical.

This occurs every few minutes and is really annoying me.
I tried to completely erase all content and set it up as a new iPhone but the stripes are still there (on 3.1.2) as they were on 3.1.0.
Is there any solution for this or do I have to call Apple Support again?

Greets,
Stefan

i have to juggle 2 mobiles (one work blackberry, one personal iPhone) and i have to leave the iPhone at home during the work day. so, i need an app that automatically (without me even being there) forwards texts to the other phone, either as texts or emails.

such apps exist for blackberry, windows mobile, and every other smartphone, but i can't seem to find one for the iPhone. surely i'm just missing something? this must be a really common requirement (why would you need the forward-calls function that all phones come with if you didn't also need the texts forwarded?)

3G Problem - Not connecting ...

iPhone sync/restore/backup after hdd ...

Hi all,

My hdd crashed recently and windows was unrecoverable, i have however managed to retrieve most of my application data and phone back ups using a file recovery program, as windows repair fantastically deleted everything.

After the repair, itunes does not seem to be installed. If i reinstall iTunes, will i be able to re-sync/restore using the backups i retrieved? Will i have to re-authorize itunes before i resync? Or is there anyway to reinstall it and copy the retrieved files over the new installation?

The last thing i want to do is wipe all my texts/contacts/photos/apps and start from scratch next time i backup.

Any suggestions would be most welcome.

Thanks.

Why dont apple unlock 2nd hand Iphones ...

I find it completely shocking that neither O2 or Apple will unlock 2nd hand iphones. Why the **** should I have to go with O2 if I want an Iphone when Im an existing customer of another carrier. Fair enough my carrier is getting the Iphone next year but who wants to wait for such a nice phone? I surely don't as well as countless others. Now forgive me for saying this, but Im willing to pay for the service and then take out a warranty too but as we all know, jailbroken phones cant be covered by a warranty as this is considered tampering with the phone and invalidates any warranty. Now am I the only one that can spot such a gap in the market? Im fed up to the back teeth of problems that arise from 'illegal' unlocking and the problems that can occur with such activities. Either O2 or Apple should get their finger out of their proverbial backside and come up with a solution. Its my chuffing phone and I want to use whatever carrier I choose.

Come on Apple sort it out, the phone is mine and I want to use it with who I choose, I couldn't give a **** about visual voicemail so don't tell me I wont have all the features of the phone. Do the maths, you have already generated the revenue from the sale of the unit, there are millions of Iphones that aren't tied to a carrier and that alone has the potential to generate you millions again even if you charge a couple of pounds to do the unlock (More like 30 or so probably)

What do you have to say? What are everybodies views on this?

iPhone constantly shuts itself off ...

So I decided to upgrade my iPhone 3G to the newest software when it was first available and now, inconsistently, it has been shutting itself off.
All I would do is lock the phone, such as after sending a message, and place it in my pocket. When I check it again, I realize it will not turn on, and have to fully power on the thing.
Is this a normal problem? What can I do? Should I downgrade? Is that even possible?

How can I stop mobile versions on web ...

Recently the web on my phone keeps trying to load mobile web versions of site instead of the full page. This happens on Wifi, 3G, and edge. Most of those web sites give the option to Exit mobile version, but when the page reloads it just goes back to mobile version. No matter what I do I can't get the mobile version to stop. Even in landscape view.

I can't find Any settings to make this stop. I even deleted history, cookies and cache, deleted the bookmark, went back to the page and hit exit mobile version over and over until if once in 40 times actually went to the non mobile version, then added the bookmark back when in non mobile mode, cleared cache, cookies and history again.

Mostly happens on Boy Genius Report, but happens on a few others as well.

But could happen again right next time I try to unlock it.
Or if I sync with iTunes, it will back to normal.
And this could keep it normal for days, then happen again.

I thought it has something to do with the software.
But after I upgradedto OS3.0 and "did not" resotre it,it still happened.

I think it's a hardware problem.
Should I just send it back to repair?

BMW Bluetooth Voice Dialling ...

Hi

sorry I can't search the forums to see if this topic has been raised before at present.

I have a 16g 3G iPhone updated with OS 3.0. Yesterday I took delivery of a new 3 series
BMW with factory fitted Bluetooth, and voice dialling functionality through the steering wheel.
Although my phone pairs with the car and the phonebook updates the car phonebook I cannot get the in car voice dialing to work. When a number is entered correctly, and called up through the system it begins the call but the iPhone display shows 'unknown application' and a big green 'Dismiss' box and disconnects.

On my old car (a 2005 3 series BMW) again fitted with their Bluetooth the voice dialling worked perfectly - at least on the 3G not on the first gen though. It did accept incoming calls. I was led to believe from 2006 model BMW the full iPhone features worked.

Has anyone any knowledge of similar problems? Is there a work around? Who's issue is it BMW or Apple? Or is it just something that's occured since the OS 3.0 update? I have e en today got the BMW Apple iPhone cradle for the car.

Again any help would be appreciated and apologies for not being able to search the discussions.

iPod app on iPhone displays "No Content" ...

Does anyone have this same issue?

I am running an 16Gb iPhone 3G with OS 3.1.2 and iTunes version 9.0.1.8 on Windows. The iPhone finishes the sync and when I go to the iPod app, it briefly displays "Updating Library", and then after a few seconds it displays "No Content". If you go to Settings, General, About it shows 0 Songs, and 0 Videos. The capacity doesn't change (still 4Gb free), so I know the songs and videos are there, they are just not showing up. Even iTunes still shows 9.90Gb of Audio.

I have iTunes setup to sync what's in one playlist. In the past, I was able to add one song to the playlist, sync, and then the songs show up in the iPod app. Now I cannot get that trick to work. And one would think new podcasts downloaded daily would help, but that doesn't work either. I have reset my iPhone back to factory defaults about two months ago to fix an ActiveSync issue, so it hasn't been that long since the phone had been "cleaned".

The "No Content" issue started out happening one a month, now it happens every time I sync. It is also frustrating that since it displays "No Content", you can't even click on More to manually download a podcast.

If anyone has some helpful information on how to fix this, it would be greatly appreciated.

Black screen ...

Last week Apple replaced my 3G replaced because of a broken home button. My new 3G has the odd behavior of showing me a dim screen and taking up to 5 minutes before brightening up. Additionally the screen went black yesterday when I tried to launch the phone. After turning black the home button stopped working. I pressed the power key to shut it down but the screen didn't respond to my touch. I got 2 calls in this state and when they came in the screen looked normal but was not responsive so I couldn't answer the calls. When they ended the screen went black again but with the cellular signal line at the top of the black screen visible. I also heard the message beep but the screen was still black. I was in the car so I did a reset by holding the home button and the power button at the same time. This rebooted the iPhone and brought the operation back to normal.

So is this just a fluke or do I need to worry? I did a forced restore when I first got the 3G then restored from backup. My last 3G with the broken home button worked fine so software didn't seem to be an issue.

Anyone have any thoughts?

just wanted to inform everyone with significant drops in battery life: After uninstalling Ping! and doing a complete discharge and recharge I am back to almost 3 days of battery life (compared to 12 hrs before) with everything turned on (3G, Wifi, push aso). (iPhone 3G, 3.1.2). Therefore I think it is worth trying to uninstall all non-Apple- software using either push or GPS functions step by step before going any further. By coincidence I did the latest update and installing Ping! within 2 days, so I was pretty sure it could only have been either one.

Urgent help - 3.1.2 issue!? ...

Hi guys,

Plugged my iPhone through USB for only the 2nd time since I got it (2nd hand though) and iTunes offered a 3.1.2 upgrade.

Decided to go for it and everything seemed fine. Backed everything up (apparently) and downloaded 3.1.2.

Shortly after I got the 'iTunes' screen and nothing was working. Closed iTunes and started it again. I get a message saying it's in recovery mode and needs to restore.

Hopefully I won't lose anything and do actually have everything backed up but after waiting for restore to do it's business I get an error message - think it's the same error 28 other people are having.

And that's it...

Been reading around and a few people think it's a hardware issue but I don't see how that can be possible. I have had no problems AT ALL with the iPhone right up until I accepted 3.1.2 and now I have this.

What's the best plan of action? Will I lose everything (Apps, contacts, photos, etc)?

Thanks,

Cammy

EDIT - Just checked again. It's coming up with an error 1604. The iTunes logo stays on but when iTunes says "preparing iPhone to restore" the screen flickers and turns black.

Really need this sorted asap (obviously).

Otterbox or Revo2? Opinions wanted ...

I posted this in the 3Gs forum, but thought I might be able to get some feedback here as well.

I will be getting a new iPhone 3Gs in a few weeks, as soon as I am eligible for the upgrade. My 3G that I had had for 16 months started acting wonky and the guy at the Apple store said it was moisture damage. Knowing how I babied that phone I still do not know how that could have happened, but that is water under the bridge (no pun intended). I do know that on my next case I want attached covering for the connector port and headphone jack. I think I have it narrowed down to the Otterbox Defender or the iSkin Revo2. I like the color of the Revo, but it sounds like the Defender is better for all out protection. I know people say it is bulky, but I was using a leather case that covered my iPhone front and back so I am used to some bulk.
Opinions please--Otterbox Defender or Revo2? (or if there is something else out there I have missed, I am open to suggestions.)

iPhone firmware update 3.1.2 is out! ...

Whew relief at last! but 'your mileage may vary'. I am very curious how well it's working. I really hope 'comatose' is a word we can quickly forget.

I was at 3.1 last night and had hopefully my last coma ever. I put on 3.1.2 and it went very smoothly other than for some reason some of my apps lost their data. (i lost hundreds of entries from my 'Lose-it' weight management program (AWESOME by the way; down almost 20# since July).

Since putting on 3.1.2, however, phone not quite as responsive as yesterday on 3.1 (something i can deal with if it never 'goes coma' again), but once in a while it's a pretty long pause, like a 4 sec. pause in the middle of a tapping a word; again if it's a trade-off to have the phone work 100% of the time i can cope with that.

Anybody that does try the upgrade and has a problem, please go through the normal steps of putting on a clean install before 'going ballistic'. Basically, i would recommend doing a backup, putting the phone into DFU BEFORE the first attempt of 3.1.2 (which i didn't do... could be related to the 'stutters' i'm getting right now).

I recommend this method:

Buzzing noise coming from earpiece when ...

I get a very annoying buzzing noise that is very similar to the GSM buzz (noise it makes when phone is next to a pair of speakers) that comes from my earpiece when I'm making phone calls on EDGE. The noise gets louder as the reception gets worse. If I have full reception, the noise is only slightly audible. If I have 1 bar, the buzzing noise is louder than the conversation going on making it nearly impossible to hear what the other side is saying. Most of the time I'm in a area where there isn't 3G and I don't have full reception, so the noise is very annoying.

I have taken it to 3 different Apple stores. The first time, the genius bar rep just restored my phone and told me to come back if it still persists. The second time at a different store, the rep did the same exact thing. The third time, the rep said my warranty was just out so he wanted me to pay $199 for repairs.

Is there any way I can fix the iPhone myself? I really don't want to pay $200 to fix this issue.

Problem with earphones ...

Hi there,
Last week my music decided to start sounding strange which was down to a bad connection problem with the headphone jack. The previous week I also noticed my in line mic doesn't work when making calls even though I can hear the other person on the phone. I've come to conclusion that the connection has deteriorated for sum reason. I've done all the normal removal of debris techniques and found a load of fluff etc but earphones still don't work.

When I pull them out slightly i get full audio through the headphones but as soon as i let go the whole connection is lost.
I've noticed some other people have had similar problems but they were usually resolved by removing debris. Is there a simple fix that people are aware of or will I have to lose my phone for a couple of days by sending it to O2 or an apple store?

I am not blind and I have used my card for online activity for years. I know my security code is entered correct. The iPhone is useless with getting apps unless I enter a credit card and I am being prevented form doing so by powers outside of my control... What that flip am I suppose to do?

And I do have the iPhone with the most up-to-date 3.1 update along with the most current version of iTunes on my PC. I've tried to log into the account on both the PC and the iPhone and BOTH tell me my credit card security number is invalid. I like how a dang application can decide that I am wrong on entering my security code on my credit card.

How do I get around this lame issue?

Bluetooth headset doesn't always ...

I have a plantronics 510 headset, runnint latest iPhone OS 3.1.2 (7D11). I paired my headset to my phone no problem. The issue I am having is that when I turn the headset on the phone doesn't always reconnect with the headset automatically. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.

I have tried resetting the phone, turing bluetooth on and off, deleting the headset from the phones list of bluetooth connections and repair it to the phone and still I get less than 50% auto reconnections when I power the headset on. It doesn't seem to matter if the phone is locked or at the home screen.

When it won't connect automatically, the only way I can get it to connect is to go into settings

Battery gauge ...

Does anyone know what the battery gauge is measuring? Does it calculate what the battery usage should have been based on usage or measure the actual physical battery power remaining?

I have been surprised sometimes about how little or how much power it shows has been used. As an example, I can listen to the iPod for several hours with almost no usage reported and then exhaust it quickly with other functions (like Safari).

Music Gone On iTunes ...

So, I'm very dependant on my iPhone for music just as all of its other features, and I have a pretty collective library of around 700 songs stored on my iPhone.

All of these songs were being synced from my laptop/iTunes, but recently my hard drive crapped out. When I took it in to be repaired I tried my hardest to save the music files on my computer but I couldn't.

So, seeing as I've lost all my songs and I can no longer sync my iPhone with iTunes without losing all of my music, I was wondering if there was ANY way to somehow transfer the songs from my iPhone back to my computer without losing all of my music (or any alternative method).

Thanks for all the help!

Microphone turning on for no apparent ...

I upgraded from 3.0 to 3.1 to 3.1.2 all in a very short period of time, so this problem might be for people with those OS as well however I'm currently using 3.1.2 and I am noticing that when I'm on Safari, or any app that happens to have a feature where you tap to enter information (such as the address bar/search feature), within about 3 seconds of taping and having the address bar/search feature/whatever come up, the clicking noise will happen (if it happens, since it doesn't always); when I put my ear to the microphone, it is obvious that the microphone is turning on (hence the soft clicking noise) and I can hear its static when my ear is up to it. I think this also might be happening at random other times as well, but it's very obvious that it happens most often when I am surfing around on Safari because I use it frequently and because if I'm in a quite room often typing in a URL or search, the clicking noise can be a constant annoyance. I suppose it is also worth mentioning that I recently (for an unrelated matter) went into General, Rest, and Reset All Settings.

Does anyone else have this problem, or have any suggestions?

Used to be able to copy photos to my PC ...

Until recently (roughly a month or two ago) I could connect my iPhone 3G with the USB cable and open the iPhone via My Computer (Win XP) and copy the selected pictures I wanted to transfer off to my hard drive. Now what happens is that I perform the same procedure, but no photos transfer. There are no indications (errors, etc.) as to why nothing happens, the files just don't copy over. I hit refresh in My Computer and the same files are there, but no new ones. I can, however, get the photos to transfer if I change the default behavior of the iPhone in Windows to transfer all files upon connecting it (although this copies everything and isn't what I want to do.) Any ideas would be appreciated. I am on 3.1.2 but had this problem before installing this most recent software update also.

Headphone remote control not working ...

For the past week or so I noticed that my remote control (clicking the microphone) was not working. I use this once in a blue moon, so I had no idea of what it could be and my phone has suffered no trauma recently. (Other than an uneventful upgrade to 2.2.1!)

So having the opportunity, I made an appointment to see a Genius in the London Regent Street store today. After stating that they would be happy to replace components (headphones, iPhone) the Genius first poked the socket with a bent paper clip and pulled out paper or fluff. After that it worked perfectly! He told me that one can do this at home but obviously with care, and not to stab blindly!

I'm impressed, and not having found any references to the problem when I searched for it I thought I would offer this experience. Naturally I have to warn that you would do such a thing at your own risk, it was not formally endorsed by Apple as a solution, and your mileage may vary!

No Sound since 3.1 update ...

Updated my iPhone this weekend to OS 3.1 and since then, there is NO SOUND NOTIFICATION.

ie. When someone calls or texts there is no sound,... when I send an email, there is no sound. If I manually trigger a sound (such as reviewing ringtones - it works fine).

All sound settings are correct - notifications are ON, silent is OFF, vibrate is OFF (but can be on anyways), all separate notifications are turned on, volume is UP to full.

Is anyone else experiencing this. This is DEFINITELY a result of the 3.1 update.

If you use Sony accessories with iPhone ...

So I own two Sony items which are compatible with iPhone 3G.

One is a Sony CD Boombox with iPod dock (Sony ZS-S2IP) another is a Sony Alarm Clock with iPhone dock (sony ICF-ClipMK2). Both of these had worked with my iPhone 3G. When plugging the iPhone onto the dock it got the inevitable "this accessory is not made to work with iPhone..." warning message, but THEY DID WORK nonetheless. Remote control, charging ability, playing music over the speakers, they fully worked.

NOW, after (very stupidly) upgrading to 3.1 firmware - NEITHER WORK. No charging, nothing. I get the "no compatible message" but they don't work.

So be warned, do not upgrade to 3.1 if you own these devices and still want them to work with an iPhone 3G.

Thanks Apple for not letting us downgrade back to 3.01

Problem with Ticketmaster site ...

In the past, I've been able to use Safari on my iPhone 3G to buy tickets on Ticketmaster.com. But it seems like they recently changed their site, and I can't get any of the drop down menus to work. When I get to the purchase tickets screen, I select the dropdown for the number of tickets, and the drum selector comes up. I select "2", but when I hit done, the dropdown returns to zero. Same thing happens on all the other drop downs - I can't change them from their default.

Does everyone else have this problem? Anyone know why?

Also, I noticed on my Mac, that the dropdowns on Ticketmaster.com don't let you use the keyboard, for example if you click on the number of tickets dropdown, you used to be able to type the number of tickets. Not anymore. You need to select it from the list with the mouse.

Avoiding erasing media files with a new ...

Hello. I've had my iphone for six months and I can't really live without it.

I've got a problem, though, trying to manually add some music to it. I recently formatted my hard drive and reinstalled itunes. When I try to change the setting to manually manage music and videos I get a window telling me I can have my iphone synced to only one itunes library. Thinking that really doesn't matter since I've always manually done it, and given options to either erase and sync or cancel, I hit cancel. This just leaves me where I started--unable to even access my music and videos through itunes. It appears there's no way to get around this without deleting everything currently on my iphone... all because of a function I've never needed or used.

So, my question is, how can I bypass this syncing issue and leave my iphone unchanged?

Buzzing noise coming from earpiece when ...

I get a very annoying buzzing noise that is very similar to the GSM buzz (noise it makes when phone is next to a pair of speakers) that comes from my earpiece when I'm making phone calls on EDGE. The noise gets louder as the reception gets worse. If I have full reception, the noise is only slightly audible. If I have 1 bar, the buzzing noise is louder than the conversation going on making it nearly impossible to hear what the other side is saying. Most of the time I'm in a area where there isn't 3G and I don't have full reception, so the noise is very annoying.

I have taken it to 3 different Apple stores. The first time, the genius bar rep just restored my phone and told me to come back if it still persists. The second time at a different store, the rep did the same exact thing. The third time, the rep said my warranty was just out so he wanted me to pay $199 for repairs.

Is there any way I can fix the iPhone myself? I really don't want to pay $200 to fix this issue.

iPhone 3G faulty battery indicator! ...

Well, my iPhone 3G has been giving me the wrong indication for battery life. Such as when it is dead (0% of battery life). I would plug it into the wall, and after a few seconds it jumps immediately to 50% or so. This really ticks me off because I do not know whether my phone is fully charged or not. Not only that but also when it's in use, sometimes when I reset it would give me a different % like from 80% after a hard reset to 33%. I've never dropped my iPhone before or anything. I've tried restoring it a few times but it's inevitable.

Does the firmware 3.1 fix this? Or is this iPhone faulty and I should go to the Genius Bar and get a replacement? I got this phone in February and it's still under warranty.

Mysterious random total shut downs ...

Ok, I updated lastnight without a hitch. But now I get random complete shut downs of the phone. It has happened twice. In both instances the phone has come back after doing a hard reboot. Anyone else having this problem?

On my soap box for a minute: EVERY OS update that apple has released for the 3g since I've owned it (other than the last 2.1XX update) has cause problems. The 3.01 update caused it to hang and slow down to a crawl despite two different restores and reinstallations of everything and now this. How hard can it be to write an OS for a maximum of 3 hardware configurations? Does apple actually test this stuff before it goes out? If the slogan is "It just works" well it just doesn't when it comes to apples ability to provide a functional OS for one of their premiere devices.
